To force Discord to uninstall, you can follow these steps:
1. Close Discord: Make sure Discord is completely closed before attempting to uninstall it. You can do this by right-clicking on the Discord icon in your system tray (bottom-right corner of your screen) and selecting “Quit Discord.”
2. Access the AppData Roaming folder: Press the Windows key on your keyboard and type “%appdata%” (without quotes) in the search box. This will open the AppData Roaming folder.
3. Locate the Discord folder: Inside the AppData Roaming folder, look for the Discord folder. Right-click on the folder and select “Delete” to remove it. This folder contains user-specific data such as chat logs, settings, and cache.
4. Access the LocalAppData folder: Press the Windows key again and type “%LocalAppData%” (without quotes) in the search box. This will open the LocalAppData folder.
5. Locate the Discord folder (again): Inside the LocalAppData folder, locate the Discord folder. Right-click on the folder and select “Delete” to remove it. This folder contains temporary files and other local data.
By deleting both the Discord folders in the AppData Roaming and LocalAppData directories, you should effectively remove all traces of Discord from your computer.
It’s worth mentioning that uninstalling Discord in this manner will also remove any custom settings or data associated with your account. If you wish to preserve any important data, such as chat logs or custom settings, it’s recommended to back them up before proceeding with the uninstallation.
If you encounter any issues or error messages during the uninstallation process, you can try restarting your computer and repeating the steps. In some cases, you may need to use a third-party uninstaller software to forcefully remove Discord.
I hope this helps you force Discord to uninstall from your PC. If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, feel free to ask.
